I got mine along Shimano's reasoning. I can't say for sure it's ever made the difference, but I suspect it's helped a couple of times. Costs about £500 to get through, so if there's a 10% chance it gets you a £50,000 contract it's probably worth doing.

Just making myself depressed looking at the number of .NET jobs on jobserve today (187) vs. the number of MFC jobs (12). Might be time to do some learning.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Any decent .Net role will typically be looking for 3 years+ (normally c# but some finance companies are going the VB.Net route), by now... go for .Net 2 if you are going to try.Vieze Oude ManComment

Generally we know cert's mean nothing except the person can possible cram and pass some tests
Agencys and clients on the other hand.....
So if you can do it without going on expensive training courses, go for it. £500 odd is small price to pay any type of possible improvement in getting contracts.Comment
